Expecting Ĥ.H ⟨Ĥ⟩ ⟨Ĥ⟩ to correctly report on the behavior of
Ĥ ⟨Ĥ⟩ is a little nuts because Ĥ contradicts Ĥ.H ⟨Ĥ⟩ ⟨Ĥ⟩.

 But that is the job it signed up for when it tried to call itself a Halt Decider.
 

There is no correct answer that Ĥ.H ⟨Ĥ⟩ ⟨Ĥ⟩ can possibly
provide that corresponds to the behavior of this Ĥ ⟨Ĥ⟩.
Therefore it must have a basis for its wrong answer.
